Description

DNA acquisition swab and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of biomedical materials, in particular to a DNA acquisition swab, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Forensic DNA analysis is a scientific technology for analyzing the distribution and transmission rule of DNA genetic markers in a population by using a modern DNA technology, determining the consistency and genetic relationship of analysis samples, and providing evidence for detecting broken cases and judicial judgment. The autosomal STR (short tandem repeat) locus is the most widely used genetic marker in the current paternity test laboratory, and a plurality of commercial STR detection kits for forensic DNA analysis have been developed at present, so that scientific application of investigation and case breaking and judicial judgment is greatly promoted. However, in the process of performing inspection by applying a large amount of these technologies, there is a problem that the existing inspection conditions cannot be well solved, such as the detection of trace, degraded and mixed inspection materials, such as ropes, shells, masks, mixed spots, etc., and the occurrence of such inspection materials on crime sites is increasing with the continuous improvement of criminal means. In general, it is difficult to obtain a biological sample with an ideal test result by using a conventional test technique, and one of the difficulties is a contact trace sample. There is currently no hard index that distinguishes trace DNA from traditional STR typing (Gill & Buckleton 2010), but there have been several different discussions of defining it, as defined by the DNA content detected by PCR reactions (polymerase chain reactions), such as < 100pg or < 200pg, as determined by quantitative analysis. This is the case where the number of cells required is 25-50, which is also the case with an extraction efficiency of 100%, so we need to pay attention to samples with a contact trace sample cell number of 20-100.
The existing swab materials for collecting the contact sample are generally as follows: 1. polyester fiber, polyester fiber or artificial silk head, the shank is a swab of plastic or aluminum: it is suitable for collecting virology test specimens. 2. Cotton swab: the kit is suitable for collecting vaginal, cervical and urethral specimens for mycoplasma examination, and is not suitable for collecting bacteria (especially causticized bacteria) and chlamydia examination specimens. 3. Polyester swab and nylon swab: it is suitable for sampling virus and bacteria specimens. 4. Flocking swab: is prepared from nylon fiber by special spraying technology, and is suitable for sampling respiratory viruses and fungi culture specimens. 5. Calcium alginate swab: it is suitable for collecting chlamydia and pertussis Bao Te nasopharyngeal swab, but is not suitable for sampling lipid enveloped virus and cell culture, and is not suitable for sampling neisseria gonorrhoeae.
These different types of swabs described above have less consistent operation. When using a cotton swab, for example, the DNA traces on these contact samples may be transferred to a sterile cotton swab dipped in distilled water, and the trace sites wiped with a wet cotton swab until the traces are transferred to the cotton swab. The so-called "double-swab technique" of wet, dry-swab combination (Sweet at 1997) is one of the most common methods of harvesting cells. The cotton swab is first soaked with sterile distilled water and the surface of the trace is cleaned to hydrate the cells and loosen them from the attached surface. Additional cells were then harvested from the attachment surface with a dry cotton swab. It is generally believed that the rehydrated cells adhere more readily to the dry swab. Unfortunately, this method can limit the amount of DNA recovered due to the poor efficiency of DNA extraction from the cotton swab. A second difficulty in swab collection is that cells can adhere to cotton fibers and are not easily released, and Voorbes 2006 mentions that the need to digest the swab with a cellose to break down cellulose in the cotton can increase DNA recovery. In contrast to conventional swabs, another nylon flocked swab method allows for the recapture of more cells released during extraction and more DNA produced (Benschop et al 2010). The cotton swab of the nylon flocking cotton swab can release more DNA, but has poor water absorption and insufficient adhesiveness to cells, so that the cotton swab can be limited to be used for collecting the contact trace DNA.
In view of the foregoing, there is a need for a high performance swab for forensic contact trace DNA collection that meets the following: (1) The adsorption and collection effects on cells and trace DNA are good; (2) More DNA can be released in the subsequent DNA extraction step; (3) does not affect subsequent PCR amplification.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the defects of the prior art, the invention aims to provide a DNA acquisition swab, and a preparation method and application thereof. The DNA collection swab has the characteristics of porosity, hydrophilicity, cell adhesiveness and easiness in desorption.
To achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
in a first aspect, the present invention provides a DNA collection swab, the DNA collection swab comprising a polycaprolactone, a hydrophilic medium, and a carrier;
the hydrophilic medium comprises a saccharide and/or a non-saccharide organic high molecular polymer.
In the invention, polycaprolactone is taken as a framework of a DNA acquisition swab, and a saccharide and/or a non-saccharide organic high molecular polymer is taken as a hydrophilic medium to modify the polycaprolactone framework, and the modified polycaprolactone framework and the hydrophilic medium are composited on a carrier together to form the swab. Polycaprolactone has good biocompatibility, good organic polymer compatibility and good biodegradability, and the hydrophilic medium I is a hydrophilic group for providing polycaprolactone; and a cross-linked network structure is provided between the modified polyurethane and the polycaprolactone, so that the modified polyurethane has strong water absorption property on the polycaprolactone skeleton by the hydrophilic medium, and the formed polyurethane has excellent adsorption and collection effects on cells and trace DNA (the DNA is collected on leather or glass, and the collection effects are excellent), can release more DNA in the subsequent DNA extraction step, does not influence the subsequent PCR amplification (in-vitro DNA amplification technology, is an enzymatic synthesis reaction depending on DNA polymerase in the presence of template DNA, primers and deoxynucleotides), and can be applied to collection of contact trace DNA.

Test example 1
Swab acquisition Water absorbency test
The DNA collection swab prepared in examples 1-11, the DNA collection swab prepared in comparative examples 1-2, and commercial cotton swab, nylon swab, flocked swab, and sponge swab were taken, each swab sample was placed in a 2mL EP tube (microcentrifuge tube) to which 300. Mu.L of deionized water had been added, the swab was allowed to stand for 3min and removed, and the loss of deionized water in the EP tube was weighed to obtain the water absorption of the swab, and the results were recorded in three parallel tests. The specific test results are shown in table 1:
TABLE 1
As can be seen from the test data in Table 1, the DNA collection swab prepared by the method can absorb more than 180 mu L, and the water absorption is stronger than that of a cotton swab, a nylon swab and a flocking swab. Whereas example 3 provides a DNA collection swab which has not been subjected to an alkali treatment, the polymer surface obtained by crosslinking polycaprolactone with a hydrophilic medium has fewer hydrophilic groups and thus has poorer hydrophilic properties, and thus has poorer water absorption properties. In contrast, comparative example 1, which is not compounded with the water absorption of the hydrophilic medium, has no hydrophilic group on the surface of polycaprolactone, and the hydrophobic structure of polycaprolactone itself causes poor water absorption performance of the prepared material.
Test example 2
Swab release cell test
Test sample: the DNA acquisition swab prepared in examples 1 to 11 above, the DNA acquisition swab prepared in comparative examples 1 to 2, and commercial cotton swab, nylon swab, flocked swab, and sponge swab.
The testing method comprises the following steps: preparing a cell sample, wherein the cell sample comprises about 100 cells in each 10 mu L of group A, about 1000 cells in each 10 mu L of group B, about 10000 cells in each 10 mu L of group C, dropwise adding 10 mu L of each group, naturally airing, respectively placing the swabs into a centrifuge tube containing 200 mu L of deionized water, centrifuging and removing the swabs after vortex vibration and uniform mixing, recovering 200 mu L of deionized water, staining the cells by using staining solution, counting under a fluorescence microscope, and judging the release efficiency of the cells. The specific test results are shown in table 2:
TABLE 2
As can be seen from the test data in Table 2, the DNA collecting swab prepared by the invention has a release rate of over 78% for 100 cells, a release rate of over 74% for 1000 cells and a release rate of over 82% for 10000 cells. The invention is illustrated that polycaprolactone is taken as the framework of a DNA collecting swab, and the polycaprolactone framework is modified by taking saccharide and/or non-saccharide organic high molecular polymer as hydrophilic medium, and the polycaprolactone and the hydrophilic medium are composited together on a carrier to form the swab. After the hydrophilic medium modifies the polycaprolactone skeleton, cells can be clung to the surface of the swab, and the cells can be fully and completely infiltrated and cracked by the cracking liquid in the cracking process and can be released to the maximum extent, so that the release efficiency of the cells is remarkably improved, and the adsorption and collection effects of the swab on the cells are formed.
The cotton fibers are mutually entangled to form fiber masses, so that cells are easily wrapped in the fiber masses, and the mutually entangled cotton fibers can prevent effective release of adsorbed cells in the cotton fibers in the cracking process. The test results suggest that the cell release rate of the attached cells from the template DNA on the swab decreases significantly with the increase of the shelf life.

/>
As can be seen from the test data in Table 3, the DNA collection swab prepared by the invention has relatively smaller extraction efficiency of DNA from Ct quantitative value than the swab prepared by comparative examples 1-2 and the Ct value of each commercial swab, and has relatively better cleavage effect because the swab prepared by comparative examples 1-2 and each commercial swab have low release rate of DNA process when collecting samples, resulting in smaller number of finally obtained nucleic acid templates. The swab prepared by the method disclosed by the invention takes polycaprolactone as a framework of a DNA acquisition swab, and uses the saccharide and/or non-saccharide organic high-molecular polymer as a hydrophilic medium to modify the polycaprolactone framework, so that the amount of nucleic acid released by the swab formed by compounding the polycaprolactone on a carrier is more, the cracking effect is relatively good, and the extraction efficiency is high.
